Let's Talk About Aliens

Forget the UFOs. Microsoft's AI isn't mimicking human intelligence. It's creating a form of alien intelligence.

It’s Thursday Night Bulwark! Tonight I’ll be joined by Bill Kristol and Mona Charen to talk about the Republican field (spoiler: they’re all running), the Russian offensive in Ukraine, and probably some AI talk.

Tonight. 8:00pm in the East. Only for Bulwark+.

Also: You guys had a lot to say in the comments yesterday, but I was mostly AWOL from the chat while working on another project. Sorry for not participating.

Lots of stuff in the news over the last 48 hours about Microsoft’s new AI-powered Bing. I want to talk about it.

Because this is the part of the movie where you start stockpiling food at the safe-house that has no networked computers of any kind.
